    For the past weeks there have been too many murders in Antigua. What is the government doing about it?

      It IS NOT AN ABANDONED PLACE! There are several individuals living on the compound. In fact, there were people sleeping mere steps from where he was found!

    Where did I read that his father was saying “they killed mys son”. I am not sure where I read it but it seems that father knew what was happening. I know the family and I will keep my peace. But sometimes parents are their children’s downfall.
